2008 KS3 Mathematics test mark scheme: Paper 2 Introduction

Introduction

The test papers will be marked by external markers. The markers will follow the mark scheme in this booklet, which is provided here to inform teachers.

This booklet contains the mark scheme for paper 2 at all tiers. The paper 1mark scheme is printed in a separate booklet. Questions have been given namesso that each one has a unique identifi er irrespective of tier.

The structure of the mark schemes

The marking information for questions is set out in the form of tables, which start on page 11 of this booklet. The columns on the left-hand side of each table provide a quick reference to the tier, question number, question part and the total number of marks available for that question part.

The Correct response column usually includes two types of information:

a statement of the requirements for the award of each mark, with an indication of whether credit can be given for correct working, and whether the marks are independent or cumulative

examples of some different types of correct response, including the most common.

The Additional guidance column indicates alternative acceptable responses, and provides details of specifi c types of response that are unacceptable. Other guidance, such as when ‘follow-through’ is allowed, is provided as necessary.

Questions with a UAM element are identifi ed in the mark scheme by an encircled U with a number that indicates the signifi cance of using and applying mathematics in answering the question. The U number can be any whole number from 1 to the number of marks in the question.

For graphical and diagrammatic responses, including those in which judgements on accuracy are required, marking overlays have been provided as the centre pages of this booklet.

The 2008 key stage 3 mathematics tests and mark schemes were developed by the Test Development Team at Edexcel.

General guidance

Using the mark schemes

Answers that are numerically equivalent or algebraically equivalent are acceptable unless the mark scheme states otherwise.

In order to ensure consistency of marking, the most frequent procedural queries are listed on the following two pages with the prescribed correct action. This is followed by further guidance relating specifi cally to the marking of questions that involve money, negative numbers, algebra, time, coordinates or probability. Unless otherwise specifi ed in the mark scheme, markers should apply the following guidelines in all cases.

282676_MS_P2.06.indd 3282676_MS_P2.06.indd 3 30/11/07 22:28:5830/11/07 22:28:58

2008 KS3 Mathematics test mark scheme: Paper 2 General guidance

What if …

The pupil’s responsedoes not match

closely any of the examples given.

Markers should use their judgement in deciding whether the response corresponds with the statement of requirements given in the Correct response column. Refer also to the Additional guidance.

The pupil hasresponded in a

non-standard way.

Calculations, formulae and written responses do not have to be set out in any particular format. Pupils may provide evidence in any form as long as its meaning can be understood. Diagrams, symbols or words are acceptable for explanations or for indicating a response. Any correct method of setting out working, however idiosyncratic, is acceptable. Provided there is no ambiguity, condone the continental practice of using a comma for a decimal point.

The pupil has made a conceptual error.

In some questions, a method mark is available provided the pupil has madea computational, rather than conceptual, error. A computational error isa ‘slip’ such as writing 4 × 6 = 18 in an otherwise correct long multiplication. A conceptual error is a more serious misunderstanding of the relevant mathematics; when such an error is seen, no method marks may be awarded. Examples of conceptual errors are: misunderstanding of place value, such as multiplying by 2 rather than 20 when calculating 35 × 27; subtracting the smaller value from the larger in calculations such as 45 – 26 to give the answer 21; incorrect signs when working with negative numbers.

The pupil’s accuracyis marginal

according to the overlay provided.

Overlays can never be 100% accurate. However, provided the answer is within, or touches, the boundaries given, the mark(s) should be awarded.

The pupil’s answer correctly follows

through from earlier incorrect work.

Follow-through marks may be awarded only when specifi cally stated in the mark scheme, but should not be allowed if the diffi culty level of the question has been lowered. Either the correct response or an acceptable follow-through response should be marked as correct.

There appears to be a misreading affecting

the working.

This is when the pupil misreads the information given in the question anduses different information. If the original intention or diffi culty level of the question is not reduced, deduct one mark only. If the original intention or diffi culty level is reduced, do not award any marks for the question part.

The correct answer is in the wrong place.

Where a pupil has shown understanding of the question, the mark(s) should be given. In particular, where a word or number response is expected, a pupil may meet the requirement by annotating a graph or labelling a diagram elsewhere in the question.

282676_MS_P2.06.indd 4282676_MS_P2.06.indd 4 30/11/07 22:28:5830/11/07 22:28:58

2008 KS3 Mathematics test mark scheme: Paper 2 General guidance

What if … Marking procedure

The fi nal answer iswrong but the

correct answer is shown in the

working.

Where appropriate, detailed guidance will be given in the mark scheme and must be adhered to. If no guidance is given, markers will need to examine each case to decide whether:

the incorrect answer is due to a transcription error If so, award the mark.

in questions not testing accuracy, the correct answer has been given but then rounded or truncated

If so, award the mark.

the pupil has continued to give redundant extra working which does not contradict work already done

If so, award the mark.

the pupil has continued, in the same part of the question, to give redundant extra working which does contradict work already done.

If so, do not award the mark. Where a question part carries more than one mark, only the fi nal mark should be withheld.

The pupil’s answer is correct but the wrong

working is seen.

A correct response should always be marked as correct unless the markscheme states otherwise.

The correct responsehas been crossed

or rubbed outand not replaced.

Mark, according to the mark scheme, any legible crossed or rubbed outwork that has not been replaced.

More than one answer is given.

If all answers given are correct or a range of answers is given, all of which are correct, the mark should be awarded unless prohibited by the mark scheme.If both correct and incorrect responses are given, no mark should be awarded.

The answer is correctbut, in a later part of

the question, the pupil has

contradicted thisresponse.

A mark given for one part should not be disallowed for working or answers given in a different part, unless the mark scheme specifi cally states otherwise.

2008 KS3 Mathematics test mark scheme: Paper 2 General guidance

Marking specifi c types of question

Responses involving moneyFor example: £3.20 £7

Accept Do not accept

Any unambiguous indication of the correct amount

eg £3.20(p), £3 20, £3,20,3 pounds 20, £3-20,£3 20 pence, £3:20, £7.00

The unit, £ or p, is usually printed in the answer space. Where the pupil writes an answer outside the answer space with no units, accept responses that are unambiguous when considered alongside the given units

eg with £ given in the answer space, accept 3.207 or 7.00

Given units amendedeg with £ crossed out in the

answer space, accept 320p700p

Incorrect or ambiguous indication of the amount

eg £320, £320p or £700p

Ambiguous use of units outside the answer space

eg with £ given in the answerspace, do not accept3.20p outside the answerspace

Incorrect placement of decimal points, spaces, etc or incorrect use or omission of 0

eg £3.2, £3 200, £32 0, £3-2-0,£7.0

Responses involving negative numbersFor example: –2

Accept Do not accept

To avoid penalising the error below more than once within each question, do not award the mark for the fi rst occurrence of the error within each question. Where a question part carries more than one mark, only the fi nal mark should be withheld.

Incorrect notationeg 2 –

or n + n for 2nn × n for n2

n ÷ 2 for n2

or 12

n

2 + 1n for 2 + n2 + 0n for 2

Within a question that demands simplifi cation, do not accept as part of a fi nal answer involving algebra.Accept within a method when awarding partial credit, or within an explanation or general working.

Embedded values given when solving equations

eg in solving 3x + 2 = 32,3 × 10 + 2 = 32 for x = 10

To avoid penalising the two types of error below more than once within each question, do not award the mark for the fi rst occurrence of each type within each question. Where a question part carries more than one mark, only the fi nal mark should be withheld.

! Words or units used within equations or expressions

eg n tiles + 2n cm + 2

Do not accept on their own.Ignore if accompanying an acceptable response.

Unambiguous letters used to indicate expressions

eg t = n + 2 for n + 2

Ambiguous letters used to indicate expressions

eg n = n + 2 for n + 2

Responses involving timeA time interval For example: 2 hours 30 minutes

Accept Take care ! Do not accept

Any unambiguous indicationeg 2.5 (hours), 2h 30

Digital electronic timeie 2:30

Incorrect or ambiguous time intervaleg 2.3(h), 2.30, 2-30, 2h 3,

2.30min

! The unit, hours and/or minutes, is usually printed in the answer space.Where the pupil writes an answer outside the answer space, or crosses out the given unit, accept answers with correct units, unless the question has specifi cally asked for other units to be used.

A specifi c time For example: 8:40am 17:20

Accept Do not accept

Any unambiguous, correct indicationeg 08.40, 8.40, 8:40, 0840, 8 40,

8-40, twenty to nine, 8,40

Unambiguous change to 12 or 24 hour clock

eg 17:20 as 5:20pm, 17:20pm

Incorrect timeeg 8.4am, 8.40pm

Incorrect placement of separators, spaces, etc or incorrect use or omission of 0

eg 840, 8:4:0, 084, 84

Responses involving coordinatesFor example: ( 5, 7 )

Accept Do not accept

Unconventional notationeg ( 05, 07 )

2008 KS3 Mathematics test mark scheme: Paper 2 General guidance

Responses involving probabilityA numerical probability should be expressed as a decimal, fraction orpercentage only.

For example: 0.7 7

10 70%

Accept Take care ! Do not accept

Equivalent decimals, fractions and percentages

eg 0.700, 70100 ,

3550 , 70.0%

The fi rst four categories of error below should be ignored if accompanied by an acceptable response, but should not be accepted on their own.However, to avoid penalising the fi rst three types of error below more than once within each question, do not award the mark for the fi rst occurrence of each type of errorunaccompanied by an acceptable response. Where a question part carries more than one mark, only the fi nal mark should be withheld.

! A probability that is incorrectly expressed

eg 7 in 107 over 107 out of 107 from 10

! A probability expressed as a percentage without a percentage sign.

! A fraction with other than integers in the numerator and/or denominator.

! A probability expressed as a ratioeg 7 : 10, 7 : 3, 7 to 10

A probability correctly expressed in one acceptable form which is then incorrectly converted, but is still less than 1 and greater than 0

eg 70100 =

1825

A probability greater than 1 or less than 0

2008 KS3 Mathematics test mark scheme: Paper 2 General guidance

Recording marks awarded on the test paper

All questions, even those not attempted by the pupil, will be marked, with a 1 or a 0 entered in each marking space. Where 2m can be split into 1m gained and 1m lost, with no explicit order, then this will be recorded by the marker as 1

0The total marks awarded for a double page will be written in the box at the bottom of the right-hand page, and the total number of marks obtained on the paper will be recorded on the front of the test paper.

A total of 120 marks is available in each of tiers 3–5, 4–6, 5–7 and 6–8.

Awarding levels

The sum of the marks gained on paper 1, paper 2 and the mental mathematicspaper determines the level awarded. Level threshold tables, which show the mark ranges for the award of different levels, will be available on the NAAwebsite www.naa.org.uk/tests from Monday 23 June 2008.

The area of A is twice the area of B B is half of A He’s just added another shape on I counted the squares

Minimally acceptable explanationeg

Equal width, but the length is doubled Same height, but width is twice as long 6 × 3, 3 × 3

Incomplete explanationeg

The rectangle is twice as long as the square

Because A is 6 squares long and B is 3 squares long

The most common correct explanations:

Show or imply the correct perimeterseg

The perimeter of the rectangle is 18, the perimeter of the square is 12 but 2 × 12 18

2 × 9 is not twice 2 × 6

Refer to the distance around each shapeeg

The length around the edge of the square goes more than halfway round the edge of the rectangle

Refer to the rectangle’s additional lengthseg

You only add two of the square’s sides to get the rectangle, not all four

It’s increased by 50%, not doubled You join two squares, but two of their sides

Gives a correct explanation

The most common correct explanations:

Show the values in grams do not consistently go up/down in steps of 25 per ounceeg

It goes up in 25s until the step from 3 to 4 ounces when it suddenly goes up 35

It should go from 150g down to 125g, but it’s 110g instead

Show that the relationship between twovalues in grams is not what other valueswould predicteg

If 1 ounce is 25g, then 4 ounces should be 25 × 4 = 100g not 110g

If 5 ounces is 150g, then 10 ounces should be 150 × 2 = 300g not 275g

10 ounces in grams should be25 × 10 = 250, but it is 275 in the table

50 ÷ 2 = 25, but 150 ÷ 5 = 30

Explanation does not use the values in the given tableeg

1 ounce is more like 28g They only use 25g as roughly equal, so those values are not accurate

! Explanation states or implies what values ‘should be’ or that the table is ‘incorrect’Condone

Minimally acceptable explanationeg

It goes up in 25s at fi rst but then changes

It goes up 25, 25, 35, 40 and so it is not a steady pattern

It should go 25, 50, 75, 100 The numbers should go up by the same amount each time

Incomplete explanationeg

25, 25, 35, 40 4 ounces should be 100g and

10 ounces should be 250g They don’t go up in proportion

Minimally acceptable explanationeg

25 × 4 110 4 should be 25 × 4 = 100 150 × 2 275 If 5 is 150, then 10 should be 300 50 ÷ 2 150 ÷ 5 10oz should equal double 5oz but it doesn’t

Incomplete explanationeg

1 ounce is 25g so 4 ounces shouldn’t be 110g

5 ounces = 150g, but 10 ounces = 275g

The triangle is isosceles so it is the same as the 74° angle marked

For angle y, refer to angles in a triangleeg

Angles in a triangle, so 180 – 74 – 74 74 + 74 = 148 and 180 – 148 because they

or

Indicates Aandgives a correct justifi cation, based on correctly calculating a pair of comparable values

The most common justifi cations:

Compare pence (or pounds) per grameg

159 ÷ 454 = 0.35(…) 125 ÷ 340 = 0.36(…) (or 0.37)

Compare grams per penny (or per pound)eg

454 ÷ 159 = 2.8(…) (or 2.9)340 ÷ 125 = 2.7(2)

454 ÷ 1.59 = 285.(…) (or 286)340 ÷ 1.25 = 272

Reason proportionally using the priceseg

125 ÷ 340 × 454 = 166.(…) (or 167)That’s more than 159

159 ÷ 454 × 340 = 119.(…), which is < 125 1.59 × 340 = 540(.6) (or 541)

1.25 × 454 = 567(.5) (or 568) 2 × 340 = 680g, which is £2.50

1.5 × 454 = 681g, which is only £2.39 4 × 340g = 1360g for £5

3 × 454g = 1362g for £4.77 If A were decreased by 114g its price should

go down by 40p (or 39.(..)p), but the difference is 34p so it’s a worse reduction

454 – 340 = 114g, £1.59 – £1.25 = 34p

but 114340

× 1.25 = 42p (or 41.(…)p)

For 2m, correct decision and any pair of comparable values shownNote that common pairs are:0.35(…) and 0.36(…) or 0.37 (p per g)0.0035(…) and 0.0036(…) or 0.0037 (£ per g)2.8(…) or 2.9 and 2.7(2) (g per p)285.(…) or 286 and 272 (g per £)159 and 166.(…) or 167 (p per 454g)119.(…) and 125 (p per 340g)540(.6) or 541 and 567(.5) or 568 (£ per 154 360g)34 and 39.(…) or 40 (p for 114g extra compared to A)34 and 41.(…) or 42 (p for 114g extra compared to B)

! Correct decision and comparison is per 454g or per 340g but given price is not restatedCondoneeg, for 2m accept

125 ÷ 340 × 454 = 167

! Correct decision but units omitted, incorrect or inconsistentCondone provided any values used to make a decision are comparableeg, for 2m accept

1.59 ÷ 454 = 0.351.25 ÷ 340 = 0.37

! Additional incorrect workingIgnore

For 2m or 1m, incomplete justifi cationeg

454 – 340 = 114g£1.59 – £1.25 = 34pTherefore jar A because you get 114g more for only 34p extra
